Abstract: A valve apparatus, in particular for a cooling system of a vehicle, includes a housing having at least two fluid connectors, a valve device which can be adjusted at least between a first valve position and a second valve position, and a drive for adjusting the valve device between the first valve position and the second valve position. The valve apparatus includes a fail-safe adjustment device in order to transfer the valve device from the first valve position into the second valve position in the event of an incident in which the power supply, in particular that of the vehicle, is interrupted.

Abstract: Coolant valve for a vehicle includes a housing having a plurality of coolant ports, a valve element arranged in an adjustable manner in the housing in order to connect or disconnect coolant ports, and at least one seal arrangement. The seal arrangement bears in a sealing manner against the housing on one side and in a sealing manner against the valve element on the other side, the seal arrangement having a carrier element made of a first material and a sealing element made of a second material, the second material being softer than the first material. The sealing element has a first sealing lip bearing against the valve element and the carrier element having a supporting portion. The first sealing lip protrudes beyond the supporting portion with a free end, and the first sealing lip is pressed against the supporting portion when coolant flows through the coolant valve.

Abstract: A filter arrangement for a liquid-conducting system, preferably a cooling circuit of an engine, includes a filter housing with an inlet and an outlet for liquid flowing along a flow path through the filter housing. A filter is arranged in the filter housing in the flow path of the liquid for filtering out dirt particles from the liquid. A collecting chamber is arranged upstream of the filter and into which dirt particles which are filtered out by the filter drop because of gravity when liquid no longer flows through the filter housing, wherein the collecting chamber forms a dead space, and therefore dirt particles located in the collecting chamber are not entrained by liquid flowing through the filter housing.

Abstract: A valve apparatus, in particular a ball valve apparatus, is provided. The apparatus includes a housing device having at least one fluid port, a closure body, wherein the closure body includes an axis of rotation about which the closure body can be rotated in a direction of rotation in order to release and close the fluid port, wherein the fluid port includes a seal for sealing abutment against the closure body. The seal includes a first and a second sealing lip, wherein the sealing lips are configured such that, during operation, only one seal sealingly abuts against the closure body.

Abstract: A valve arrangement for a cooling system of a vehicle includes a housing having at least two cooling-liquid ports, and a valve element, which can be adjusted between an open position in which it opens up a connection between the cooling-liquid ports and a closed position in which it separates the connection between the cooling-liquid ports. A drive is provided for adjusting the valve element between the open position and the closed position, wherein the drive includes an electric motor, which motor drives an actuation element which actuates the valve element, wherein the actuation element moves along a circular path section in the course of an adjustment of the valve element between the open position and the closed position.

Abstract: A thermostat valve for a coolant circuit includes a housing with a plurality of coolant connectors, and at least one hollow valve element mounted in the housing for rotation about a rotational axis. At least one opening in the circumferential face, the opening selectively connectable to one or more of the coolant connectors by way of rotation. A drive rotates the valve element and includes at least one actuator which can be switched between a first switching state for rotation in a first rotational direction and a second switching state for rotation in a second rotational direction. A two-point control device actuates the actuator in such a way that, if a setpoint value is exceeded and if the setpoint value is undershot, the actuator is switched from one switching state to the other. A damping mechanism damps the rotational movement of the at least one valve element.
